I had to take out of a savings fund to be able to pay a bill on time. I know I can put 100% of the savings I had back in @ the end of the month - but because I got behind I felt it better to make my minimum payment on time. Did I do the right thing?

I've already had so many "Ah-HA Moments" about my previous ways that I was doing things vs this way and it's eye opening! I'm assuming the first month is a transition month where a lot of pieces get put together, at least that's been my takeaway so far!

@louls47681 although we are all on the journey to be debt free, every person's circumstance and path is very different and personal. You are the only person who has to live with the decisions you make. In the end you will get there, just like everybody else. Stay focused, you got this!
